It took forever for us to find a couple costume that we both like, but we finally agreed to Ash and Pikachu! After deciding, it took even longer to find a cheap yellow dress (which I finally did online), but it was completely see through so I used a little black dress I already had … Read more
I made this costume because I have always been a fan of Pokemon. Dialga, a legendary Pokemon, is one of my favorites, so I decided to make what I would call armor of the Pokemon. The first thing I made was the chest piece. My big sister helped me draw out the shape on cardboard … Read more
As a big lover of Pokemon, and someone who hasn’t really dressed up for the past 3 Halloweens, I decided to do the best I could this year with what little money I had. I bought most things at places like the Thrift Store, Kmart, Party Universe and Target. For the big red “R” I … Read more
My 9 year old told me he wanted to give me a challenge this year for Halloween: he wanted to be Charizard (from Pokemon) this year. And of course I haven’t sewn anything since Middle School, which is far too long ago to remember. Overall the costume was a HUGE success and at each step … Read more
Don’t just be any police officer, be Officer Jenny! The picture pretty much shows it all. I just took a simple blue dress and short sleeve button up over it. I got both from a thrift store for under $6. The only “crafty” thing I had to do was cut two rectangles of red felt … Read more
This year for Halloween, I was studying abroad in the UK, about 2,500 miles away from my home in Wisconsin, USA. They aren’t as big on Halloween here as we are back home, but I knew that I would still want to dress up, and make my own costume, as I started doing that a … Read more
This Ash Ketchum and Pikachu costume creation was an awesome experience! My boyfriend and I were Pikachu and Ash for the infamous Halloween at Ohio University. This was the perfect choice for a college party. Pokemon was a 90’s fab and everyone in college made a connection with us. My boyfriend actually came up with … Read more
Pokemon is our theme this year for Halloween as chosen by my boys. Zander chose Vaporeon, Kaiden chose Squirtle, and I chose Charmander. All of these Pokemon have been done before by various people online for Cosplays and such; however, none of them had instructions for the sewing-challenged like myself. I scoured the world wide … Read more
My friends and I made these sexy Sailor Squad and Tuxedo Mask group Halloween costume for a Halloween social event for our sorority. It took us the entire day to complete them, but it was worth it! We got a lot of compliments at the party, and we actually ended up winning 1st prize in the … Read more
I wanted to do something Anime, and I have always liked the cartoon Sailor Moon, so I decided to be Sailor Mars, because I didn’t have to do much to my hair. I bought red and purple ribbon for the sash and bow (most supplies bought at Michael’s), and glued the purple ribbon into a bow … Read more
Not a major amount of work went into this Pikachu Halloween Costume, but a lot of searching and stress! I started off trying to find a simple yellow outfit but when color matching shorts and a top got too difficult, I went with a yellow dress with full sleeves and a high neck. Make sure … Read more
My boyfriend and I wanted to make something original and since we were both once fans of Pokemon, we decided on Ash and Pikachu. I made my Pikachu costume out of a slip bought for 3 dollars from a thrift shop, black and yellow duct tape, and cardboard! I started by covering the slip with … Read more
